Patient Testimonials
"I had tummy tuck and muscle repair with Dr. Maia 3 months ago. I couldn't be happier. I am 44 and I got my 25 year old body back after tummy tuck with Dr. Maia. The initial consult was great. The surgery was fast. The post op care was excellent. Dr. Maia and team assured me that I had great post recovery and everything going okay. I had no complication whatsoever. The incission was very small and low which I love. She is amazing and caring surgeon. He teams are very responsive and wonderful. I am very happy with the result and everything.' - Roni H.

"I wanted to take a moment to express my profound gratitude for the wonderful work and results of my recent tummy tuck. The transformation you achieved has exceeded my expectations and left me incredibly happy and confident. For over 20 years, I had resigned myself to never wearing a bikini again. However, your exceptional skill as a plastic surgeon has made me rethink that decision—an impressive feat, especially considering that I am over 60 years old. Like a great artist, you resculpted my body into something beautiful, and for that, I am deeply grateful. Before I met you, I was ashamed of my figure, which had been stretched by three pregnancies, scarred by a C-section and other abdominal surgeries, and marred by a botched liposuction operation. I didn't believe I could ever have abdominal surgery due to the challenges posed by several adhesions, uneven areas of fat, and compromised skin. But you worked your magic, and I will be forever thankful for your expertise and dedication. Your exceptional pre- and post-operative care put me at ease every step of the way. You were honest about the procedure, its challenges, and the potential outcomes, which made me feel confident and informed throughout the process. I will always remember your encouraging words when you asked if I would ever wear a bikini again: “Never say never.” I am excited about the possibility of further plastic surgery under your expert care and will not hesitate to recommend you to my friends. Thank you once again for everything you have done for me." - Anonymous Patient (Emailed to our Practice)
"I had abdominoplasty with muscle and umbilical hernia repair and liposuction done by Dr. Maia 2 months ago and I can not explain how happy and grateful I am. Dr. Maia and her entire team made sure to guide me through the pre and post-operative process, always calling me to check if I needed any assistance or information, and that made all the difference during my recovery. I felt very well supported and confident in realizing one of my biggest dreams, which was having the body I had before 3 pregnancies, I traveled 8 hours for my appointments and surgery and I would do it again because her professionalism and dedication are worth every mile, I received the best care. I highly recommend Maia Plastic Surgery!" - Geonne G. (Google Review)

"Dr. Maia deserves more than 5-stars! I’m thrilled with my results and I’m less than 3 months post surgery. Dr. Maia is confident and kind, and not at all pushy like other plastic surgeons. I was overly impressed the morning of the procedure. The surgical and hospital staff know her well! They were ready for her and put me at ease while I was getting settled in the OR. I appreciate the team in Dr. Maia’s office for their patience and care. They are just as calm as Dr. Maia." - Karli N. (Google Review)
"Putting one's looks into someone else's hands is an overwhelming decision. After meeting with several Plastic Surgeon's, when I met Munique I felt immediately at ease. I was led to a room to wait for Dr. Maia. There was no endless waits I experienced with so many others. When we met I was struck by her youth, but as soon as we began to speak about my procedure she was fluent and knowledgeable putting me immediately at ease. It did not take me long after our meeting to make my decision. Other patient's will tell you in their review's that Munique is wonderful, amazing, the best, marvelous, etc., but since our meeting I have had a face/neck/brow lift, arm lift, breast lift, thigh lift any several injectable procedures. If that isn't testimonial enough, I drive in to see her several hours and stay in a hotel just because she is that good! If you have ANY hesitation, DON'T. Stop looking for that perfect Doctor, you've found her!" - Cheryl J (Google Review)
"Life Changing Results Beyond Expectations -- Face/Neck Lift with NO Visible Scars -- Should have done this years ago! On 31 Aug 2021, Dr. Maia performed a neck lift, chin implant, partial face lift and arm lift on this 58 year old male patient. I can attest that Dr. Maia is the most gifted of surgeons, and the results have FAR exceeded my expectations of what I thought possible. There is only one way to eliminate sagging skin, and if you are reading this, you owe it to yourself to take the next step and transform your life. Dr. Maia displayed the most genuine intentionality throughout the consultation, surgical procedure and post-surgery care. If you still are hesitating, look at the aesthetic results in the before and after pictures, and then go get the results you deserve." - D.F. (Google Review)
"I could not be more pleased with the experience and my results from Dr. Maia! The skin on my neck has been bothering me for a few years, even after trying laser treatments and injections with some improvement. During my consultation with Dr. Maia we discussed several procedures, surgical and non-surgical. She took the time to thoroughly explain the benefits, expected results from each and answer all my questions. I felt very comfortable and confident to move forward with the neck lift. The surgery was completely painless, no bleeding and the recovery was far easier than I thought and no bruising. Three weeks out I was able to resume normal activities and have received many compliments on how well rested and great my skin looks! Dr. Maia is a very talented, knowledgeable surgeon who gives beautiful natural results. The staff is also very friendly and responsive, which is key to my excellent experience!" - Jennifer H.
